TEANECK, N.J. -- Is your husband still wearing baggy pleated trousers? Does your brother favor ties that stop just north of his navel? Is your boss a little too fond of the three-button suits he’s been wearing since the first Bush administration?

Emporio
, the fine men’s/boys store in Teaneck is promising to award three men (18 years of age and over) with much-needed fashion makeovers.

Those selected, based on their submission and photo, will receive the advice of Emporio’s men’s fashion consultants and new wardrobes worth $1,000 – with their choice of suits, shirts, ties, pants, sweaters, shoes, accessories, etc. – plus haircut and shave, if necessary, in its first ever Men’s Fashion Makeover Contest.

Founded in 1988 by David Rappaport and Josh Szpilzinger, two college buddies, Emporio has expanded from a tiny 600-square foot space off Thirteenth Avenue and 50th Street in Brooklyn, to locations in New Jersey, Brooklyn and Long Island.

To enter the contest, visit

or send an entry on why the individual being nominated needs a new wardrobe with his photo to media@emporioclothing.com. The deadline for entries is September 1. For more information, call 201-530-7300.
